Estate and Probate Litigation

If your right to inheritance is somehow being mishandled or threatened, having an attorney experienced in litigation is a necessity.

We work with clients who need assistance in all forms of estate litigation:

Estate, Probate and Trust Litigation

In some unfortunate situations, a dispute arises as to the validity of a will, trust, or the manner in which a "personal representative" is administrating an estate. Depending on the situation, a claim may need to be brought in the probate, or through a separate but ancillary proceeding.

Many disputes arising from a will, trust, or probate matter would fall under TEDRA guidelines in Washington State - The Trust and Estate Dispute Resolution Act. Unlike other types of civil litigation, this statute puts estate litigation on an expedited path toward resolution. While this does provide parties with a quicker resolution, it also means that an attorney is required that both understands TEDRA proceedings, and is able to respond and react in an agile manner.

Nowakowski Legal PLLC is able to provide you with the necessary legal assistance in all of your estate and trust litigation matters.
